Nowadays, members of the International Concertina Association get a very informative quarterly magazine, Concertina World, and music supplement. Their website, as you can see, is excellent, and gives a summary of the contents of past magazines as well as plenty of other news and music. Standard membership is £20 a year for UK residents.

The ICA has turned into a much more lively and active organisation than it once was, thanks especially to the great efforts of Chairman Jon MacNamara, editor Pauline de Snoo, and webmaster Michael van der Meiren.
